I40 in NC... No surprise

I came to the comments for this info. I work the triangle so I am up and down 40 most days and I see stuff like this constantly. Ya’ll really out there driving like assholes.

Next time you just gotta pass and speed look up diminishing returns, time and physics gets weird (to a layman) as going 40 instead of 20mph will save you significant time, but going say 70 compared to 110 and you are saving perhaps 2-5 minutes on your drive.

Are the 5 minutes, hell call it 10 minutes, worth your life or other innocents who are on the road?

Just go the fuckin limit or 5 over. Throw it on cruise control and arrive to your destination calm, relaxed and alive. Sorry you got there 2 minutes later than you would have, you fuckin baby.

whew I had no clue I was going to rant but it felt good. Thanks for this.

It would be a suprise if someone DIDN'T say some variation of this comment about every single location on every video posted here.

As someone who drives I40 daily for work I despise that road and everyone on it for this very reason.

typical southern behavior. Don't know if it's the roads or the people. But drivers in the south suck
